Stock #8056-8100
Rapid Rivet Setter and anvil
Sets small, medium and large Single and Double Cap Rivets
Really?
You didnt see that?
Come on now...



Jesse,

Yes I saw it. But I probably should have been more informative in my
original email:

I cannot use that to set the rivets because that would be on the inside of
the helmet where I can't swing a hammer.

So I'm hoping there is another tool that can be used to do the job. I've
seen "rivet squeezers" but I do not know if they work with these sorts of
rivets.


thanks for your answer
